He is a successful business . man, a keen student of finance and ‘ a fluent speaker, who has won a large and enthusiastic following.

He , claims that it will accomplish what President Roosevelt is avowdely try- ing to accomplish, namely, make money of constant value throughout the years, and prevent recurring de- , pressions. This is not a new political , party or social system, but a simple lmoney system which could be adopted land put into practice by any party for system of government.

Help us to make this a success. E The Richmond Hill municipal counâ€" cil are nearing the close of another year and a review of the financial laffairs of the municipality at the :regular meeting on Monday revealed ithat things are in a very satisfactory position. The council has kept its spending well within its budget, said the treasurer, A. J. Hume. It. was estimated that payment of taxes for the year will be about 70 per cent, but it is hoped that citizens will make a special effort before the 15th of this month to at least make some payment on their tax obligation. The 1934. council has had a very satisfactory year. The business! of the village has been conducted in a most harmonious manner and the municipal affairs of the municipality appear to be running along very efficiently. There are many severe problems to face including unemploy- ment and relief, but the council has been remarkably successful and ef- fective in meeting and dealing with these major problems. With the New Year only a few weeks away there is a notable absence of any rumblings in the municipal arena and it appears likely that the 1934 council will be returned by acclamation, as so far no one has intimated a desire to conâ€" test any of the seats. ' The annual nomination meeting will be held in the Municipal Hall, Monâ€" day, Dec. 31st, and the election, if necessary, will be held Monday, Jan. 7th. Hlal'ry Glover, J. Sanders and A. B. Macdonald were named as Deputy Returning Officers and W. Savage, Frank Barker and Miss Phyl- lis Glass as. poll clerks. Mr. James McLean was unanimously chosen as chairman of the committee to have charge of the annual Comâ€" munity Christmas Tree. The council received notice that L. H. Clement through his solicitors had issued a writ against the town for damages resulting from an accident on Richmond Street on October 23rd. Mr. Clement claims that the accident was- caused by the condition of the roadway. The town referred the claim to the insurance company and the council has been advised that the insuarnce company claims that Mr. Clement has no claim against the town as the roadway was not danger- ous to any traffic travelling at reason able rate of speed. A resolution of thanks was pass-ed expressing the thanks of the munici- pality for a flag presented to the village by the Women’s Institute. RA‘esid‘ents in the neighborhood of the waterworks pumping station com- plained of the nuisance of water over- flowing the tank. Engineer McBride stated that it was difficult not to overflow the tank as the float which acts as an indicator is broken. An at‘tomatic switch would cost in the neighborhood of $300 and as council members did not feel like making an expenditure of that size just now Mr. McBride was ask-ed to watch closely and try and avoid having the tank run over.
